The whole debate around structure versus flexibility in training plans is exhausting. If we’re considering the effectiveness of TrainerRoads plans, how do we truly assess whether they cater to real-life chaos? Metrics are great, but do they capture the emotional toll of missing workouts due to family obligations or unexpected work demands?
When injuries pop up, do athletes feel empowered to adjust their training, or are they stuck trying to fit a square peg into a round hole? If the plans lack built-in flexibility for these scenarios, are they ultimately just a glorified set of guidelines that can lead to more frustration than progress?
It seems like a lot of athletes are left juggling their commitments while trying to stick to a plan that may not even consider their unique circumstances. So, how do we make sense of this? Are we just hoping for the best, or is there a way to find a more tailored approach that still gets results?
